for us. how much is it going to cost us? >> well, $11 billion is the number to watch. that's the amount of money the government says it expects to pay out in 2014 to essentially underwrite insurance companies that are losing money because of the high cost customers, including the old and the sick. in order to pay for that, the government is going to balance that out and said it would take in $12 billion next year from fees to insurance companies that were making good money by writing policies to low risk consumers, including the young and the healthy. the question is whether the president's new fix is going to upset the apple cart. >> so to understand the math here, why would that happen, why would those numbers change by delaying those cancellation notices? >> you know, it's actually pretty simple. if lower cost consumers, for example, younger people with fewer insurance bills, decide they're going to stay with their old plans next year, but consumers with higher medical bills decide to go w

joining us, brian steltser. you've read this report about what happened at 60 minutes and the benghazi story. what red flags did they talk about in that report? >> well, there were several mistakes that were made along the way. and that's why the head of standards and practices at cbs said the whole report was inefficient. they didn't talk to their other colleagues at cbs who could have helped them figure out that this main source's background was very suspicious and that he had told the government one thing and told 60 minutes another thing. those contradictions are the main reasons why this report's now been discredited. and it seems that cbs failed to do that investigating beforehand. that's basic fact checking 101, the type of thing 60 minutes is known for doing every week. and in this rare case, they came up short. >> and of course all news organizations make mistakes. i think the key is to own up to them and try to live by the lessons learned. lara logan and her producer have taken a leave of absence. >> i
